Resetting the Setup and Power-on password
To disable the power-on or setup password features, or to clear the power-on or setup passwords, complete
the following steps:
1. Shut down the operating system properly, then turn o the computer and any external devices, and
disconnect the power cord from the power outlet.
2. With the power cord disconnected, press the power button again to drain the system of any residual
power.
WARNING! To reduce the risk of personal injury from electrical shock and/or hot surfaces, be sure to
disconnect the power cord from the wall outlet, and allow the internal system components to cool
before touching.
CAUTION: When the computer is plugged in, the power supply always has voltage applied to the
system board even when the unit is turned o. Failure to disconnect the power cord can result in
damage to the system.
Static electricity can damage the electronic components of the computer or optional equipment. Before
beginning these procedures, ensure that you are discharged of static electricity by briey touching a
grounded metal object. See the Regulatory, Safety and Environmental Notices guide for more
information.
3. Remove the access panel.
4. Locate the header and jumper labeled PSWD.
NOTE: The password jumper is blue so that it can be easily identied. For assistance locating the
password jumper and other system board components, see the Illustrated Parts & Service Map (IPSM).
The IPSM can be downloaded from http://www.hp.com/support.
5. Remove the jumper.
6. Replace the jumper.
7. Replace the access panel.
8. Reconnect the external equipment.
9. Plug in the computer and turn on power. Allow the operating system to start. This clears the current
passwords and disables the password features.
10. Establish the new passwords in Computer Setup. See Computer Setup (F10) Utility on page 50 for
information.
Clearing and resetting the CMOS
The computer’s conguration memory (CMOS) stores information about the computer’s conguration.
The CMOS button resets CMOS but does not clear the power-on and setup passwords.
Clearing CMOS will clear the Active Management Technology (AMT) settings in the Management Engine BIOS
Extension (MEBx), including the password. The password will default to “admin” and will need to be reset. The
AMT settings will also need to be reset. To access the MEBx, press Ctrl+P during POST.
